On a normal day, when every normal person went on their normal lives, a not-so-normal person was having an extremely bad day.
A 21-year-old Zoltan was currently making some dinner in his run-down apartment. Everything about him screamed "average". Whether it was his job, his appearance, his family, his little brother, anything.
Everything was going fine for Zoltan, well besides being average. He had just gotten home from his 9-5 job. Today was a good day, all until his apartment had caught on fire from his stove.
Sure, he could've saved a bit of money and gotten a better apartment, with better appliances, but Zoltan was a man of culture.
Instead of "wasting" his money on clothing, his appearance, and his housing, he spent that hard-earned money on manga, light novels, body pillows, and so forth. Zoltan was a major otaku.
Being the man of culture that Zoltan was, when his apartment caught on fire, he didn't run away. No, only a coward would leave his precious collection behind.
He did his best to protect his collection from the villainous fire, but it was all for naught. The fire's power level was just too high.
While everyone else evacuated the building, as any normal person would do, Zoltan would rather die than leave his belongings behind.
After he died, his family and friends mourned his death. May Zoltan rest in peace...
...
Fortunately, Zoltan's story doesn't end here.
After he died, his soul reached heaven where the Gods and Goddesses reside.
Zoltan was standing in an abundant, colorful garden as he scanned his surroundings.
It was then Zoltan met a beautiful Goddess, someone so beautiful that he doubts he'll find someone more worthy that would fit that term.
She was currently sitting, staring at him. She was kindly allowing him to gaze upon her divine presence.
Zoltan's eyes were glued to the Goddess's face, not daring to look at her wonderful body that would put any woman to shame.
The Goddess chuckled at his reaction, but was rather used to it. She looked at Zoltan and greeted him. "Greetings, Zoltan. My name is Ghesva, the Goddess of Love and Lust. I'm similar to a Goddess in your universe."
Zoltan was astonished by what she said. 'From my universe? Does that mean I'm in a different universe?' he thought.
"Indeed. You were selected to have your soul transfer to a different universe, the current universe we're in now." Ghesva said as she read his mind.
'I guess it's not surprising she could read my mind,' Zoltan thought. He then asked. "Why was I selected? You're not going to tell me to become a hero and defeat a demon king or whatever, right?"
Since Zoltan was a cultured man, he read many novels with the same cliché plot when he was alive.
Ghesva laughed and said "Fufu~ You're funny." She paused before continuing, "No, that is not why you are here. You're here because I found you interesting and planned to reincarnate you, nothing more, nothing less."
Zoltan went from surprised to confused in a matter of seconds. He shook his head and asked. "Back where I'm from, there's this saying "There is no free lunch"...What do you want from me?"
He couldn't believe that this Goddess would select a soul, his soul, just because she found him interesting. Unless Ghesva was either crazy or she was planning something.
Ghesva sighed. "As I said, I just found you interesting. You don't have to be on guard against me. I have no hidden agenda nor some secret plot. Please sit and allow me to explain." She said as she signaled with her hand to a chair.
Zoltan nodded, then sat. He waited until she spoke again.
Ghesva smiled and then explained to Zoltan her reasonings. "As I said before, you were selected to transfer your soul from your old universe, to this one. This isn't the first time this happened, and certainly won't be the last.
You'll be reincarnated into a world you're already familiar with. It's a fantasy world, as you call it, filled with all kinds of species, magic, and so forth.
Quite honestly, I need nothing from you. If you want to, you could become a hero and bring peace to the world, or you could become a demon king and lay chaos on the land. It's all up to you. However you want to live, that is your decision."
Zoltan's expression brightened as he eagerly asked. "Will you give me a super cheat ability, then? Like they do in the light novels?"
Ghesva laughed at his childish action. "Indeed. When you reincarnate, you'll be given a system that's tailored toward your personality and, in this case, a pervert. Not only that, you'll be given some bonuses, too."
Zoltan didn't retort at what Ghesva said. He knew full well that he was indeed a pervert. But does he feel any shame or disgust?
Absolutely not.
Zoltan fully embraced being a pervert, because he thought that he was just a healthy young man.
Seeing Zoltan accept her gifts, Ghesva continued explaining. "Along with these gifts, you'll be reincarnated as a noble vampire. To make it easier with your system, I'll be bestowing you with a perfect body suited to mana and appearance. Your face will also be extremely handsome, you could even say very beautiful."
Zoltan grinned. Having a perfect body and being extremely handsome? Sign me up!
Though, Zoltan had one question that confused him. "Goddess Ghesva, I don't have any complaints, and this does sound extremely satisfying, but wouldn't being an Incubus or something be preferable to suit my system?"
Ghesva shook her head. "While what you said is true, being a vampire is a better option. Vampires are stronger and faster than Incubus while being better at magic. Also, a vampire's charm could rival an Incubus's charm. Not to mention, an Incubus's main source of food is the opposite sex's nectar. But, being a vampire, blood is everywhere."
Zoltan didn't ask any further. Plus, being a vampire was something that sounded cool to him.
Ghesva saw him accept her explanation and wanted to see if he had any other questions before she sends him on his way. "I could reincarnate you now, but do you have any questions before I send you off?"
Zoltan shook his head and smiled warmly at Ghesva, "I do not. You have done more than enough and I'm content with what I have. Though I would like to say this."
Zoltan looked deeply into Ghesva's eyes and boldly stated. "I promise you, when I get stronger, I'll make you mine."
Ghesva wanted to know where he got the confidence to dare say that to a Goddess, but she didn't have a problem with it. Rather, she found it amusing.
She laughed. "Fufu~ Let's make a bet then. The next time we meet, and if you manage to charm me..." Ghesva paused before continuing in a seductive voice, "I'll be all yours~"
Zoltan laughed, but on the inside, he was a little relieved she took it well. He wanted to gauge her intentions one last time, so seeing that she wasn't arrogant or a bitch, he was satisfied.
Though he was very interested in this bet. He asked her, "What happens if I lose?"
Ghesva giggled. A few seconds later, she released a bit of her aura that increased her charm even more.
Basking in her aura, Zoltan's body was getting hot. Even though he was in a soul form right now, that didn't matter. Ghesva was that powerful and capable of turning any man or woman into mindless apes filled with lust.
'She truly lives up to her title, huh?' Zoltan thought as he tried to calm down.
Ghesva looked at Zoltan with a seductive smile. "It's easy, if you lose, then..." she paused before continuing, "You. Are. Mine~"
When she finished speaking, her aura intensified for a few seconds before she sealed it.
Zoltan sighed in relief that he was no longer under that dangerous aura. Right now, he wanted to get out of here because the current him is clearly no match at the moment.
Knowing this, he spoke in a shaky voice. "O-Okay, I think I'm ready."
'What a cutie' Ghesva thought as she giggled inwardly. As she finished her thought, she snapped her fingers.
"Oh, I forgot one more thing..." Ghesva said as she realized something important.
Zoltan's body was slowly fading as he heard her.
"Deep down, your new family is a little...eccentric," Ghesva finished. She then saw his soul fully disappear as she giggled, "Well, not that you're any different."
